Pringle isn't a kid he's the same age Robinson is...
Cutting Robinson is short sighted and leaves with lacking depth and with a bunch of dudes who either don't know the offense or are career special reamers. [Reply]

What he said all around just isn't going to happen. We won't go undefeated and Henne didn't prove that he can beat anyone.
Don't we end the season against Denver? We could probably start Beuchele and win that one relatively easily. [Reply]

Relying on Robinson makes absolutely no sense and the coaches know it. Toub said flat out he doesn't like him. Do you think Andy and EB like a player that drops passes , runs sideways and hold the ball like shady. NO, Powell doesn't do that. Fountain doesn't do that. Kemp doesn't do that. Those boys are hungry for play time. Let them play. [Reply]

Let's stake it to 2 guys that have been here for 3 seconds and a career special teamer. [Reply]

Sure it's a risk, but I think we've seen the best of him and it's all in the rear view. But remember, there's a reason the Chiefs only offered him a one year deal and a reason he snatched it up. I don't hate him, but I'm just not sure he's got any more upside at this point than a Fountain or a Fortson.
- Hill
- Hardman
- Pringle
- Fountain
- Kemp
- Powell
- (Fortson can be counted here even if he's a TE, imho)
^ Is that good enough with Alex Smith? No. Mahomes? Yeah.
And honestly, I'd be willing to bet a decision like this won't be made without getting Mahomes' take on it. If Mahomes wants him here, he'll be here. [Reply]
It's not so much about upside, it's about right now. DeMarcus Robinson knows the offense and has played alot, if anyone thinks Marcus Kemp has more value, that's dumb. [Reply]

Against the Cards Robinson was targeted 6 times and had 2 catches, its what he does. All the other receivers were productive. I understand what your saying but I think Fountain is hungry and Powell has ball skills and I'd like to see them playing.
Look at Justin Jefferson last year, he was a rook. [Reply]
